Those are all webkit based browsers, so it seems normal that they'd all behave the same.
Well they did not. Until Chrome changed the behavior to comply with http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/zindex.html

How much content does this break? Was this discussed on one of the public mailing lists? If so, does anyone have a link to some relevant discussion?

All our fugly desktop integration is done with a broker application which runs on the user's machine and talks to local COM objects via web services. You see an occ…
What is your experience based on? I've been working with some large enterprises in the past (50k+ employees), all of them only use IE and all of them are full with some crappy ActiveX software, some by HP, some homegrown, it's really full of that crap. :( Even software that would support multi-platform is crippled in a way that only Windows+IE works, because in the projects noone cares if some other browser or (god f…
